Pascal Brunet

The fish bake and Macaroni cheese were very good, as was the spinach, I thought that the portions and seasoning were spot on. Unfortunately the burger bap fell apart as soon as my partner put the burger on which meant the whole thing was quite messy and difficult to eat. - Clare, SW8

melted Brie French burger was top top notch - would defo order again. Honey mustard chicken unfortunately was too dry. - Gaia, SW2

The food arrived late, it was due between 8.30-9pm but arrived a little after 9.15pm. This was the 2nd time that we had ordered from Pascal and again it was late. Plus there was no apology note or anything. The food was good, although the portions were bit on the small side. Unfortunately it was lukewarm and being food that is difficult to microwave, we just had to deal with the lukewarm food,which compromised the quality and put a bit of a damper on our Valentine's evening. We had made a special request of chocolate pudding instead of the white chocolate pannacotta that was on the menu. He however ignored our request and sent us the pannacotta anyway, only it was not white chocolate but infant passion fruit pannacota which is not what was on the menu. Again no note to let its know about this... what if we were allergic or hated passion fruit?? Luckily we were ok with it so we ate it but when it arrived it was melted, so we had to place it in the freezer to retain its texture. He may want to invest in some cool and hot bags or containers that could retain their appropriate temperature for the food that he is serving as it really compromises the quality. All in all a disappointment. We will not be ordering from Pascal again...shame because there are only a few chefs in our area, and we love the idea of Housebites. - Lehni Lamide, SW16

Excellent meal!! :) - Tara, SW11

Ordered my meal for Valentines day and it was great! Food turned up bang on time, was hot throughout and tasted incredible. I would recommend Housebites and Pascal to anyone! - Jason, SW6

Very disappointing. The sausages were of a poor quality and had a slightly musty taste to them; lumpy mash with too much mustard; the gnocchi appeared to have just been heated up, very little taste; dauphinoise also seemed to be victim to the microwave too. Good corn cakes mind you. Basically, Housebites is a very good idea but for it to work the quality really has to be there. Even if that means paying more. Our food last night was not a treat, which essentially is what good takeaway should be. Get higher end ingredients, actually cook it to order and charge more would be my advice. - John, SW18

Tremendous. Exceeded expectations. Travelled well. Very tasty, everybody enjoyed it. Nice delivery man too. - Elliot, SW16

Unfortunately delivery was late and food cold. - Mark, SW8

Another excellent meal!! - Linda, SW2

First order from housebites - very pleased. Delicious food and friendly delivery driver. Will order again. - Oliver, SW12

Nice addition of chocolate treats! always a pleasure to order from pascal!! :) - Joanna, SW2

The food was very good and warm. I would definitely recommend Pascal's cooking abilities. - NICOLAS, SW11

Food was delicious but arrived 30 minutes late. - Paola, SW2

Yummy - Shelly, SE5

Good tasty food delivered hot and on time. What more can you ask? - Robin, SW2

Most importantly the food arrived on time. Pretty much what i expected. Would definitely go back for more. - Avinash, SW16

The food was ok but it wasn't very warm. - Sean, SE5

It's tough to give feedback as I really liked the concept when I heard about it and wanted to enjoy the experience but found it just like every other takeaway. I would say that maybe I am not target market as I very rarely order food to be delivered and love to cook myself but some of your marketing material suggested that it could be ordered for a dinner party and it really does not live up to those expectations. I found it to be reheated pre-prepared food rather than the freshly prepared experience I was promised and the packaging was very poor - especially the spelling mistake promising "takeaway prizes"! - Hester, SW2

Disappointing. Food cold and had leaked out in the bag. Meat very fatty a think pork belly is meant to be fatty but cold fatty meat is not so good. Small portion. Tried Pascal before and was great - but this was not even good. - Raggi, SE24

Delivery was very late due to horrible traffic, but Pascal was courteous enough to let me know which was great. Amazingly, food was still warm when it got here. The Pork Belly was tender and the skin was very crispy! Loved it! Great food, thanks! - Nicole, SW1V

The food was delivered 2 minutes later than the expected time and didn't meet my expectations. I would not order again. - Bianca, SW11

Food was great though one thing that annoyed me was that the toast was burnt and the chef turned it to the side that wasn't burnt hoping I wouldn't notice! - Chumporn, SE27

Very rich flavours but not at all overwhelming. Pork moist but with very crispy and chewy crackling. Kale was fresh, with bite but also in a truly creamy sauce. Duck leg confit meat came off the bone very easily as it should and was also moist and full of flavour. - Patrick, SW1P

Hi, the meal was good but the delivery service was terrible. I placed my order at 8.50pm and only received it 2 hours later at 10.50pm! I chose ASAP on the site and the next time down was something like 9.30pm. I really wanted to like your service but I'm really disappointed. - Andrew, SW1V

My comments relate to the experience in general rather than exclusively to the chef. The meal is only marginally cheaper than going to a restaurant. It took over 90 minutes to arrive. And, it wasn't hot when it arrived. A bit disappointing to be honest. - Alex, SW10

The food was rather bland, nothing special to it and had to be reheated as it arrived cold. The tart was nice but arrived all over the place. The treat clafoutis could have done with more fruits. - Julie, SW6

tres tres bon ,je le recommande vivement - marie, SW18

Another high quality, high calibre meal from Pascal. - Sean, SW2

A fav of mine... Will continue to order! - Nicola, SW11

The first order I have placed, but it will definitely not be the last. Every morsel was delicious and exactly as described on the menu. - tracey, SE24

Delicious! And arrived exactly on time. Thank-you! - Katy, SE24

Loved it, but should have ordered vegetables as well. Will know better next time... - Wendy, SW8

Another thoroughly excellent meal from Pascal. The pork and accompaniments were cooked to perfection. Truffle mash was the star of the show. - Gordon, SW4

Delicious! And my ice cream was forgotten in the main delivery, but was kindly delivered separatley without me asking... Very good food prepared and delivered with care. - alex, SW4

I have ordered from Pascal before and on both occasions the food was very tasty, hot and arrived on time. I was particularly happy to find the dish nice and filling as sometimes when I order, I find I'm still quite hungry by the end. I would order again. - David, SW9

The food was amazing.. Good portion sizes and every mouthful was delicious. Will definately order from you again!! We are not even sweet eaters but the sticky date pudding was gone in a matter of mouthfuls!! Thanks so much for an amazing home cooked meal - you can tell it was made with love and we loved every mouthful of it!! - Fiona, SW4

My friend raved about the pork belly!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Shelly, SE5

Food was very good. Late delivery. - Lyndsey, SW18

Fantastic! - Ross, SE27

Excellent once again. - Sean, SW2

Excellent food. Only minor criticism is that the portions were a bit too large! - Sally, SE11

The potatoes did not travel well but everything else was excellent! - Lehni Lamide, SW16

The stroganoff and risotto were absolutely delicious. The portion size was very large though and could be smaller I think. I couldn't finish it. I was however very hungry as my order was 15 minutes after the time slot I'd booked. - Carina, SW11

Delightful meal - would definitely order from the site/chef again. - Ana, SW4

The best takeaway food ever. Huge portions and very well cooked. - Carl, SW4

Excellent food - promptly delivered... The field mushrooms are a lovely alternative to a meat dish and are really mouthwateringly tasty! - David, SW1V

The pie is really good, loads of it, and comes with a nice puff pastry lid packaged separately. - Alex, SW6

I have an issue with your question above: How would you rate your meal? Very Good - does not do it justice. Please add a further option to the drop down. Excellent, Perfect, Amazing - I think you get my point. - paul, SW2

The side order of red cabbage was nice and the seasonal veg was tasty too. However, the mushroom wellington was disappointing. The mushrooms were dry and tough, perhaps due to overcooking, and there was too much nutmeg in the filling. Additionally, the spinach came out in clumps. I was not pleased with the main. I am rating this is average overall because I really enjoyed the cabbage and seasonal veg. The delivery was also slightly late, but I don't think that this is the fault of the chef. A 30 minute delivery window is probably too aggressive. - Trina, SW2

This was excellent! And piping hot too. My compliments to the chef. - Erin, SW12

was delivered very late, which was annoying, but was very delicious when it arrived. - Robin, SW12

Very large portion of the main course, and very tasty. - Linda, SE17

Bit of a shame today. Not the service that I am used to from Housebites or Pascal. Today's food was over half an hour late (no call from the chef) and arrived with the pack overspilled and the bag broken from juices spilling. It was cold. But it was so late that I ate it anyway. Will I order again? Probably. His food is always good quality. But I am concerned about the delivery side of his service. - Marc, SE24

Compliments to my chef. Great all round meal, excellent taste and flavours and it all seemed to travel well. So much healthier than the usual three or four (Pizza, Curry etc.) Really nice thanks. Felt like excellent value - makes you realise what overheads do to the price of your food. - paul, SW2

Food was 15 min late, which may explain the temperature of food which was almost cold. The yorkshire pudding & roast potatoes were soggy. Vegetables were seasoned nicely though. Overall, I dont think I would order or recommend again for £34.00 - James, SW18

Amazing, prompt, and very polite service. Food was of an excellent standard! Will use again. - SAMANTHA, SW16

Arrived on time and was delicious thank you - Diane, SW11

Would definitely order again. Very good value for money. - Sean, SW2

Excellent cottage pie, really good roasted veggies and my wife enjoyed the lentils (i am not a big fan in general!!). As for the chocolate mousse it was definitely one of the best i have had. Thank you - Leo, SW17

Fantastic. Will definitely order this again. - Marc, SE24

Excellent quality, and delicious. I liked the "treat" especially. Will definitely order again. - Nicholas, SW1V

The coq au vin was delicious, as was the chocolate mousse, especially the shortbread! - Alex, SW6

It satisfies our desire for a proper home-cooked meal... that we didn't have to cook. Impressed by the portions! - William, SE5

tasty tasty tasty! - Chayter, SW8

The Food on the whole was tasty, however there didn't seem to be any stuffing and for the cost of the meal the portions were not very big. - a, SW11

Pretty much a perfect sunday roast. Generous portions, well seasoned, excellent gravy! If I had to nitpick something maybe the roast potatoes could be a little crispier but I'm really splitting hairs, A+ - Alex, SW6

A perfect meal on a winter's evening. My taste-buds are smiling and my stomach is very happy! Thank you very much! - Nicola, SW11

Hachis parmentier was very tasty ! Thoroughly recommend it. - Sylvain, SE5

really delicious and very generous. would definitely use this guy again. - Paul, SW12

Great food, and generous portions. Would definitely recommend. - Sarah, SE11

Lovely, maybe a little more meat would be nice. Absolutely gorgeous chocolate mouse. - Catherine, SW4

The food was delicious and generous sized portions. The roast beef was lovely. Was a little disappointed that the Yorkshire Pudding was flat and the food was not as warm as I would have liked when it arrived. Overall very tasty though - Chris, SW17

Wow... a lot of amazing food :) Everything was good, particularly the vegetables that came with the roasts, and the chicken itself was very good. The roast beef was slightly on the tough side but still delicious. Another great meal from Housebites... thank you Pascal - Gus, SW2

The food was excellent - easily as good as your best local gastropub, for less money, and in the comfort of your own home. I'd order every Sunday!! - Kelly, SW11

Everything was delicious and well cooked. Really liked the creamed leeks and the savoy cabbage with bacon lardons. Will order again for sure! - Nelly, SW11

Delicious! - Gareth, SW6

Only 2 comments. The potatoes were very tasty but would have been better with a little less salt. The leeks were a bit too al dente. They were fresh tasting and would have been spot on if they had been cooked just a fraction longer. - Campbell, SW4

Disappointed with today's order.. Arrived a little late and instead of the promised "crispy roast potatoes" we were looking forward to for our Sunday lunch, we received unseasoned boiled potatoes all mushed up and mixed in with vegetables which ended up looking a mess and not tasting great. - David, SW16

No shortbread with desert other than that excellent!! - Alan, SW2

Wonderful food, thankyou very much! - Sarah, SW17

Our meal was excellent. Creamed leeks were perfectly cooked - al dente and no sign of mushiness whatsoever. Beef B was tender and flavoursome. chestnuts and shallots a great combination and nicely caramelised. Gnocchi was also flavoursome although a little salty as were the potatoes with the beef B. lovely touch with the yummy free fish soup. would definitely order again, really was more like restaurant food than takeaway food at a good price and delivered swiftly. - annabel, SW2

The food was ok, (potatoes, delicious) - however for the price (£31), the portions were incredibly small, thrown together and rushed. Such a shame. - Scott, SW17

Like last time everything was really delicious! And such a nice thought to throw in a free portion of dessert which was also really good! - Linda, SW2

As a chef my self I can be very critical about my food, but I have only compliments to say about Pascal' s cooking. Everything was full of flavour, perfectly cooked and seasoned. My order arrived on time but wasn't piping hot. Although it was the best take away i had in my life so far. Bravo Chef!!!!!! - Bonner, SW11

Overall good meal, but not as good as others I've had on Housebites. Starter: Received a goat's cheese quiche rather than goat's cheese salad, but it was delicious, so didn't mind. Main: The salmon and mushroom pie was nice, but not outstanding. It was also in a separate box to the pastry, rather than cooked together. ~The savoy cabbage was very average and too salty. Dessert: Figs with chantilly sauce were really good. - Jan, SW4

Absolutely delicious! Such a treat. - Jack, SW6

The beef was good. The potatoes a bit tasteless, but still ok. The cake was good even if it arrived completely "destroyed". Guess this is not the cook's fault. The delivery was 10 min late. But in general, I would recommend it. - Vanessa, SW4

Lovely meal. Fast delivery. - Chris, SW4

Lovely stuff. - Jack, SW2

Excellent! - Tom, SW4

Everything was delicious, piping hot, and the portion sizes were generous. The cannelloni was rich and full-flavoured. I wondered whether the soy sauce would work with the figs but the flavours complemented each other beautifully! Really lovely. - Cassie, SW12

I remember Pascal from the days when he ran his own restaurant called the Passage Cafe- I am very pleased that he is still providing such great service. I ordered the MUSHROOM AND RICOTTA CANNELLONI as a main course, and the JUICY ROASTED FIGS WITH CHANTILLY CREAM for dessert. I think I struck Gold- both dishes were absolutely superb! I found the size of the portions perfect, as part of a multi-course meal, and although I am normally a big meat-eater- the dishes sounded so tasty, I went for it. I have to comment on the dessert; this may well be one of the finest I've ever had. If I had a date with a special woman, and I was going to cook for her in order to impress her- this is the dish I would do for dessert- it has a combination of flavours, combining sweetness from the figs with molasses sugar and a slight savoury flavour from the soya sauce, then completed with the cream- each mouthful was spectacular!! I hope this one stays on the menu for some time to come- I highly recommend it! The meal was delivered exactly on time, and Pascal checked on me to see if I was happy with everything. I am going to visit this menu regularly! Great food, service, and prices! - adam, SW4

The food arrived promptly and was hot throughout. It was very reasonably priced given the good quality of the food. I would happily recommend the service. - Alex, SW1A

First experience of Housebites. Exceeded expectations. Particularly enjoyed Bouillabaisse. - David, SE17

Great taste. There's a saying; "always leave them wanting more". I do want more, but I want more as I'm still hungry. Portion size was a bit measily for £11. - Chayter, SW8

Very well done! - Philipp, SW1P

Excellent all round. I was intrigued by the pud with the pepper ice cream and it was as delicious as the other courses, I was crunching the pepper! It was all delivered bang on time and I will definitely order from you again. - Liz, SW17

Very generous amount of beef. Seemed to be high quality with tasty melted fat. Would've been nice to have a bit more in the way of carrots. Arrived ~10 mins late but overall a good meal. - Tom, SE5

Simply delicious. I continue to be amazed at the quality of food being delivered - it can be located somewhere between a lovely local bistro and your mum's best home cooked food! - Gareth, SW6

The food was great, but it arrived one and a half hours late! - Ben, SW2

Pascal's Hachis Parmentier was the ultimate comfort food with garlic. Fabulous. Yum. - Alex, SW11

All the food was delicious - the trout was the most well-cooked piece of fish I've had in ages. The side salad was beautifully prepared and well-dressed. All in all a fantastic meal. The only comment I would make is that I thought the gnocchi was a little overpriced - it was really good but quite small and only slightly cheaper than the large trout dish. - Natalie, SE21

Starter was a bit confusing - not sure the strawberries worked in this instance, though this could be down to my not having tried gazpacho before... there were a lot of flavours fighting for attention and none of them really won! The main course was much nicer - all the flavours went together wonderfully, the gnocchi had the perfect texture and although it wasn't that warm (due to the delivery driver being stuck in traffic, not his fault at all!), I actually thought that worked in its favour as just being a little warm meant I could concentrate on the flavours which were delicious! And the best was saved for last - the summer crumble was divine, I could have easily devoured four helpings of this luscious fruity dessert, absolutely delicious! Will definitely order from Pascal again, will just be avoiding gazpacho in the future! :) - James, SW8

Delicious food, delivered on time. I had to choose the same main as last time, as it's the only vegetarian option, so more choice would be very welcome. - Martyn, SE5

Lovely meal, everything was very tasty, especially the rice pudding, that was very morish! Prompt and friendly delivery. - Tamara, SW16

Lovely touch to supply a free pudding. Arrived extremely punctually. Food was fresh and flavoursome - a nice and healthy alternative to the usual takeaway. - Sophie, SE22

Excellent! Really tasty stuff. - Toby, SW1V

This was my first order with Housebites. The food was tasty and sufficiently hot when delivered. It was delivered 20 minutes early, which on this occasion wasn't a problem, but who's to say I'd be home 20 minutes early the next time? It's a welcome change to the usual takeaway pizza / indian/ chinese, I'd certainly order again, and I hope the venture works out. I wider range of dishes, and more chefs to choose from, in due course would be very welcome. - Martyn, SE5

Excellent food. This really is the perfect solution to enjoying a beautiful meal at home while enjoying the company of friends with no breaks to slave away in the kitchen. Not that my food would ever taste this great! - Caitlin, SW17

I chose Pascal because he had deserts on his menu. I prefer a sweet, rather than a starter. The main was very tasty, and the breast was still fairly moist, despite it's journey! I have a fairly energetic job, so would have preferred some more carbs/calories, especially for the price! Otherwise a lovely dish. Desert was fantastic, lovely combo of sweet cream and tart summer berries. Fast delivery, I would order again. - David, SW9

Food was great, service was excellent, delivered on time...my only negative is that the portion size was too small...I had a voucher code which mean the meal cost me next to nothing, but I dont think I would order again purely because it was simply too small. £13.5 for one is too much for the size of meal I had. I hope you take this on board and maybe offer some MAN size meals in the future. Thanks Jordan - Jordan, SE11

I would have rated this very poor but the quality of the food is outstanding. However, the portion size of the pan-fried chicken is tiny and it has come with only a spoonful of sautéed green beans and mushroom. The container it came is half empty and I am still roasting some potatoes to go with it as it came with nothing else. I bought 3 portions and wish I had not. - Carl, SW4

Absolutely fantastic. Really well cooked. Arrived really quickly and everything the right temperature. A great option when you normally like home cooked fresh food and you just don't feel like cooking. Definitely will order again and will be recommending to friends. - Pauline, SE11

Very good indeed. - Wendy, SW8

Excellent food, well packaged. Really yummy. It was our wedding anniversary and we couldn't go out as we have a small baby, but this made it seem really special. Only problem was it came half an hour earlier than I had booked, so its a good job we we're home! - Rachel, SW16

Everything was excellent, my husband even said it was the best Housebites meal he's had (and we've had a few)! Free dessert was a very nice thought, thanks! - Linda, SW2

Great chicken and crumble dessert. Housebites excelled as usual - Linda, SE17

That was delicious. Better than delicious. - Marc, SW8

Excellent meal, thanks very much! The veal was tender and flavourful, the mash creamy, and I loved the combination of goats cheese and pear in the salad. - Adam, SW9

Great! - David, SW9

This was a very enjoyable meal. The only down-side is that I had to share it. The dinner was a mere 15 minutes later than I had opted for but I received a very polite phone call from Pascal himself letting me know that it was on its way. I think housebites may want to consider alternative packaging as I know this meal would have looked amazing had it been served on a plate in a restaurant however the rectangular chinese takeaway boxes added an element of doubt right before dishing up. Pure aesthetic though as the food tasted lovely. - Lewis, SW18

Impressive - quick service and delicious! Thanks - Katie, SW8

Corn cakes were great. Guacamole had a nice kick to it, and the baby gem seemed very fresh. The chicken was very well cooked, juicy and well seasoned. Ideally I would've liked to have had something more adventurous like the pancakes, but they were sold out (I'll have to be quicker next time!). Pascal also included some little chocolate corn flake cakes which was very kind. Overall great! - Tom, SE5

Excellent meal - I was really impressed and will definitely be ordering again. Particularly loved the baked chocolate soup! - CAROLINE, SW17

The Starter (Devils on horseback) was absolutely delicious. The Salted Cod was good whereby the Hollandaise Sauce was excellent. We were a little dissatisfied with the Pan Fried Chicken Breast as the dish itself was a bit bland which I believe is not down to the preparation but the choice of ingredients itself. Maybe put something a little more exciting on the menu instead. Eventhough the prices are pretty steep and the portions fairly small it was nice to have a very tasteful take away meal and we will order again. :-) - Daniel, SW19

Good. - Benjamin, SW1P

Awesome! Big portions very very tasty and cheap when you compare to take away...I see the as more restaurant at home - Shane, SW18

Yummy - Daniel, SW1P

excellent - Chayter, SW8

Tasty! - David, SW9

The first thing to say is that your drop down immediately above should have an "excellent" or "wow thank you" option. The second thing to say is that I think you're onto a winner. The clapham salad was really great: fresh, tasty, innovative flavour combinations and just the right balance of components together with beautiful dressing. It was genuinely revolutionary home delivered hot food. If you want some constructive criticism, then the only thing I can say is that the roast potatoes (at least I think they were roast potatoes) were cold and cardboardy (as even the best roast potatoes go once cool). And although it was very nice, the Chicken stew was more of a consumé than a stew as advertised. Thank you. I've already recommended you to a couple of people. And we'll be back again! - Richard, SW9

Very impressed by the flavour and temperature of les crepes. Price makes it more of a once a month rather than a once a week choice. Overall v pleased. - Will, SW9

Absolutely delicious - particularly the tomatoes and goat's cheese. - Richard, SW2

Delicious, thankyou. - Giles, SW12
